Copied Signal: My Lot Size Too Small. Any Options?

 

Hello All,

First I want every one to know I did do my own research and read the FAQ. 

I'm running a practice account to figure the signals thing out.  I am subscribed to 1 signal right now.  It is doing well, except every trade seems to be opened with .01 lots.  I would much prefer to see larger lots... like .05 to .10 instead of .01.  I read the following in the FAQ... "On Provider's account all trades are performed with volume of 0.1 lots. I want to copy these trades with larger volume, for example 0.3 lots. Can I raise the volume somehow?

All volumes are calculated automatically. Subscriber can copy trades with volume larger than on Provider's account only in one case - if Subscriber's account balance reserved for signals copying is greater than Provider's account balance (Subscriber_Balance * Load > Provider_Balance)."


I'm not sure I understand this.  I did go into Tools > Options > Signals and changed the "use no more than" field from 5% to 50% just to see what would happen.  It didn't seem to make any difference.  

Do I have any options or is that just the way it is?


Thanks,

You can use two instances of the application and copy trades between accounts.

 

I'm not sure I follow.  What exactly do you mean? 

Thanks,
